Intermediate photography class, daily review of photos.

Review one

The following photo (Picture 1) is concise and the main body is prominent, but it is not a good photo. Why? One main reason.

Figure 1

The camera position is not correct

The main body in the photo is undoubtedly the sacred stone on the left side of the picture, and the most conspicuous is the highest part on the left. Apparently, its position is too far-fetched. As a result, a quarter of the space in the upper right corner is blank.

If the camera position is moved to the left side of the picture, so that the sacred stone is in the middle of the picture, shooting a panoramic view, including the pilgrims surrounding the path of the sacred stone, and exposing the sunset and sunset on the left side, the overall effect should be better.

For example, similar to the form of the following figure (Figure 2), the visual center and the sunset in the distance echo and balance each other. At the same time, the surrounding environment is also integrated into the visual center as an organic whole.

Review two

In the following photo (Figure 3), novice photography can't see anything wrong with it, but people who have studied photography for a while can find that there is a problem with shooting at a glance, and there is more than one.

First, there is no visual center

In addition to the sky and water surface in the photo, the remaining elements are a large stone in the foreground, a tree on the left, a forest on the right, and several houses in the distance. If the house is the center of vision, then the stones in the foreground are too abrupt, and the woods on the left and right are too conspicuous as a companion. Who is the Vision Center? Not clear.

Normally, a photo should have a clear visual center, and other elements should form an organically integrated picture around the visual center.

Second, the contrast between light and shadow is large

The water and stones in the foreground are in the shadows; the houses in the back are in the sun. As a result, the front and back scenes were too large, and the house was obviously overexposed.

Third, the prospects are chaotic

The ditch in the foreground itself is covered with rocks and weeds, and the blue sky and white clouds, as well as the scenery on the shore, are simply chaotic. Such a prospect is harmful to the whole photo and not beneficial.

Fourth, the camera position is too low

The low camera position squeezes the scenery in the longitudinal space together, and even if the foreground is increased, the picture will appear thin. If you choose a higher camera position to shoot overhead, the sense of space and layering of the large scene will be clear at a glance.

For example, the picture below (Figure 4) is a good positive case photo.

Figure 4

Through the overhead shot of the higher camera position, the vertical space of the picture is completely opened, making the picture more layered. Foreground, mid-view, long-range, layered.

As the visual center in the picture, the town is clear and clear; the appropriate green tree foreground increases the sense of space of the picture and beautifies the picture; the surrounding elements are cut into the state that the companion should be, and the lines are gathered into the visual center; under the soft light, it can be said that the scenery is pleasant and a wonderland on earth.
